HP COMPAQ Presario CQ20 411TU - Compatible with Windows XP?

Nice day!

Last week, I bought a laptop (HP COMPAQ Presario CQ20 411TU). It is not an operating system installed and the seller told me that I can only install Vista and Windows 7 for her. I bought Vista Ultimate and installed. However, it seems that some of my apps (especially online games) is not compatible with Vista. It's true that my laptop cannot be installed with Vista and Windows 7 (as to what the seller told me)? I really want my games online must be installed, and I think that it is possible that by downgrading to Windows XP.

Thank you!

Yes, you can downgrade it, see part 2 of the guide to downgrade xp, here

    Hi all

    I just bought a compaq presario CQ20-410TU. And it came not with the drivers needed to make it work properly.

  • 31.0 Thunderbird is compatible with Windows 10?

    I have 10 Windows installed on my laptop. Thunderbird, I am told, is a great alternative to Microsoft Outlook [that is not free, as well as Thunderbird]. But before you install Thunderbird, I need to know if it is compatible with Windows 10. Is it?

    I think that Windows Mail is the poorest excuse for a mail client. And I hope that I can use Thunderbird instead of Windows Mail or Microsoft Outlook.

    Thank you.

    Ken [[email protected]]

    Even if Windows 10 is not explicitly mentioned in the notes as supported OS (again), 38 Thunderbird works well on Windows 10.
    Note that the latest version of Thunderbird is 38.3.0.

  • My Yahoo Mail is "" forcing me to switch to Firefox by turning my functions in basic. Firefox is compatible with windows 7 for home and student?

    Hi, I have a Yahoo Mail account for many years. Now, they have turned my account in base saying that my IE9 is no longer supported and they are "" forcing me to download Firefox otherwise I have to continue with basic messaging. Firefox is compatible with windows 7 for home and studens? If I download firefox it will affect all the files I have on my computer? Will this affect my windows mail? Thanks for a quick reply.

    Firefox is compatible with windows 7 for home and studens?

    As far as I know, Firefox runs on all variants of Windows 7. Firefox works better with a lot of memory, so if your system has 2 GB of memory, you may be limited in the number of windows and tabs you can open simultaneously before things get bogged down compared to a system that has 4 GB of memory.

    If I download firefox it will affect all the files I have on my computer? Will this affect my windows mail?

    As a web browser, you can configure Firefox to your default program to open web pages and links. If you do this, while some icons may change, for example, links to web pages can change to an icon of Firefox. In addition, Firefox has a built-in PDF reader, but you can still use Adobe Reader or another program to read PDF files if you want.

    Are you using Windows Live Mail or another standalone program to retrieve messages? Firefox be involved with it because these programs to get the mail directly, not not using your browser. But if you make Firefox your default for links Manager, when you click on a link in the e-mail software, it will open in Firefox instead of Internet Explorer.

    Other things:

    (1) attention to the download links at random in search engine results. You can get Firefox here (scroll to your preferred language):

    https://www.Mozilla.org/Firefox/all/

    (2) I'm sure after Firefox is started the first time, you will have many questions. The program should give you a little tour of routine, and you can use our support articles for more information: https://support.mozilla.org/products/firefox

    (3) you must install IE11 because there are still a few sites that use patented technologies and are not displayed in Firefox, such as Windows update

  • AMD Radeon 7570-devices is not compatible with Windows 10 - you're going to have problems with your screen

    Microsoft will come out with Windows 10, as an upgrade of the free operating system next month, July 29, 2015. They came out with an app, 'Get Windows 10', which is intended to help the operating system upgrade process. In this app, it checks for compatibility issues that may exist between your computer and their new Windows 10.  I get results for two of compatibility issues when I run this app. The one that concerns me, it is with the video card that came with my computer, AMD Radeon HD 7570.

    The app tells me: "these devices are not completely compatible with Windows 10" and he adds "you will encounter problems with your screen."

    Is there any driver updates that resolve this problem?

    The driver, I installed on my pc is Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. version 8.960.11.2000

    Windows says that the driver is up-to-date.

    If no driver is available to correct this problem will be I need to replace the video card in my computer and if so with what?

    I currently use two screens, a LG 22EA53 (analog) and an Acer S230HL without any problems with Windows 7, Home Premium, Service Pack 1.

    Malygris1,

    Well, son of a gun... looks that microsoft has made changes in their updates.

    Now when you run the "'get 10 app Windows, check your PC ' it reads in devices..." "0 problems found."

    Looks like Microsoft do with last-minute changes, as you indicated, and others have mentioned about being patient on this matter, that they may (?) have addressed this problem.  Probably won't suddenly course up until the update is done.

    Guess for now, I have to score this as accept as a Solution.

    I followed your suggestion with a slight variation, and I am now under Win 10.

    Before you start, I did a complete picture of the system and backup using my existing Win 7 and created a repair of the system / boot drive.

    My steps were:

    1. download Win 10 from the Microsoft site on a USB key.

    2. I tried to start on the key and do not far in the Win 10 installation routine, when I received a message to restart Windows 7 normally and start the installation of Win 10 since the key.

    3. after a while win 10 started but the screen was skewed and none of the options/settings display gives a suitable display. So you don't have to try to correct the display settings.
